Gujarat Titans at IPL 2022 Mega Auction
Gujarat Titans had an underwhelming auction after having drafted three potential match-winners in Hardik Pandya, Rashid Khan, and Shubman Gill. The inexperience in batting is glaringly obvious. If Hardik can't bowl and the back has been a constant issue with him, the fifth bowler's quota could also be a potential sore spot.
They bid heavily on Rahul Tewatia, who apart from that one innings and has not done anything noteworthy in IPL with either bat or ball.
Purse entered: INR 52 crore
Purse left: INR 0.15 crore
Biggest buys: Lockie Ferguson (INR 10 crore), Rahul Tewatia (INR 9 crore) Mohammed Shami (INR 6.25 crore)
Full Squad List: Gujarat Titans (GT): Hardik Pandya (D), Rashid Khan (D), Shubman Gill (D), Mohd. Shami, Jason Roy, Lockie Ferguson, Abhinav Sadarangani, Rahul Tewatia, Noor Ahmad, R Sai Kishore, Dominic Drakes, Jayant Yadav, Vijay Shankar, Darshan Nalkande, Yash Dayal, Alzarri Joseph, Pradeep Sangwan, David Miller, Wriddhiman Saha, Matthew Wade, Gurkeerat Singh, Varun Aaron, B Sai Sudharsan
